Maybe you don't think of the word "art" when you listen to soft-rock, but when I heard Air Supply in concert at the San Diego County Fair – the word "art" came to mind. Their music is melodic, lovely, and artistic. The song lyrics have substance, and provide emotional sustenance for the audience.

Stokes' new work departs from native themes and landscape imagery to focus primarily on abstract expressionism done in acrylics.

All of the women followed along as they were told to "shake it, baby shake it," while the men bobbed their heads and snapped their fingers. The years faded back to Dec. 4, 1956. Sixty-three years, four months and 10 days ago, in Memphis, Tennessee. Excitement was high as Sam Phillips was waiting for Johnny Cash to stop by to sign his next...
